Child Development Center

Building #1963

NAVSTA Rota's full-time Center is a beautiful, state of the art facility that is a great place for children. Styled after a Spanish ranch home "Cortijo", the Center incorporates the latest features in child development center design to provide safety and security of the children in a pleasant setting. The center is NAEYC Accredited. Each room is specifically designed to accommodate the appropriate age group. A large variety of quality equipment, materials and supplies are provided to support the classroom program. Large playgrounds offer a variety of experiences including a cycle track and village, shaded picnic pavilions, open grass areas and even a huge gothic castle. The CDC also has an Hourly Care, Spanish Immersion and Enrichment Program. The CDC located in building #1963 is next door to the MWR Administrative Office in Building #1.

The center follows a "Developmental Curriculum" which provides a wide variety of age appropriate activities designed to promote the social, emotional, physical and cognitive growth of each individual child. The concept behind our curriculum is that young children learn best by doing. The activities we plan, the way we organize the environment, the toys and materials we select, the daily schedules and the way we interact with the children are all planned to accomplish the goals of our curriculum.

Quality staff is one of the most important ingredients of an outstanding child development program. Our staff is very experienced and very well trained. They are committed to keeping quality care for your child our number one priority.
